Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome In Methadone Exposed Infants: Role Of Genetic Variability, Andrea L. Fielder, J. K. Coller, M. R. Hutchinson, Ross R. Haslam, Nona Lu, Susan C. Adeniyi-Jones, Michelle Ehrlich, Walter K. Kraft

Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics Posters

Poster presented at: CPDD Scientific Meeting, San Juan, PR.

Aims: NAS incidence & severity in infants exposed to methadone during gestation is independent of maternal methadone dose.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of genetic variability in IL-1B -31 or OPRM1 A118G on NAS incidence (treatment required) & severity (dose of morphine).

Methods: This pilot study collected cheek cells from 71 methadone exposed infants; 46 …
